When a hired gun burns out from the life he’s been living, he returns to the small country town where rumors run rampant and everyone goes to church on Sunday.

With sins and secrets trailing Jason Koster home, he is searching for redemption in hopes of living a life less complicated. He didn’t expect to find the only girl he ever loved now a recently single woman running her family farm.

Delilah Noelle never needed much, but she wanted Jason Koster—one time love of her life. When misunderstandings tear the former beauty queen and quarterback apart, can a second chance heal their broken hearts?

Will the years and circumstances that have passed be too much to bridge the distance to a future together?

Solace is a heartwarming small town romance with plenty of action and swoons that will have this hometown hero vying for the affections of his high school sweetheart.

A must read! First check out The Kingwood Duet to be introduced to Jason. Since I had already met Jason in Savage and Savior (The Kingwood Duet), it was a pleasure to see where he came from and what his story was. Jason really wasn’t a bad guy, just a guy who was lost after the love of his life broke up with him. Jason never stopped loving Delilah and the feelings were mutual but he didn’t know it till he came home. Delilah was the one that got away and since coming home Jason finds out that she’s single with the hope of reconnecting if not forever but for closure of 4 years ago. Delilah still holds a candle for Jason but she can’t act on it because of her ex, but once she gives into Jason’s will she feels safe in his arms, but is Jason gonna stay or leave? They’ve reconnected on many levels but will the past still pull them apart again?
S.L. I loved this book as much as the Kingwood Duet. I got shivers in spots and tears in others. You have a way with words when writing and that makes you awesome in my book. You have given your characters life with passion and that makes the reader feel as they are reading. Written with both P.O.V. of the main characters you’ll never need to know what the other is thinking.
S.L. Scott is an author to definitely read! This story was a bit softer than the Kingwood Duet (another must check out) but either way you’ll be hooked. 5 Stars!

EXCERPT

I used to think she couldn’t resist me, but she had no problem earlier this week. I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve when it comes to Ms. Noelle. Let’s see if she still can. “I’ll be right back.”

“What?” my mom asks, watching me get out of the car. “Where are you going? The light’s going to turn green any second.”

I keep walking.

She sees me. Even though her pretty eyes are hidden behind big sunglasses, I can figure they’re probably damn wide right now. Reaching for the truck door lock, her finger pushes it down just as I arrive. She can kid herself like that. She knows deep down that I’ll never hurt her, but I might pressure her into giving me a little of her time.

Standing on the other side of her door, I knock. Delilah finally looks up and points at the light. It’s green. I shrug. I make the lame twist of the wrist roll down your window motion with my hand because I have a feeling she might not understand if I pretend to push a button to roll it down.

“Get back in your car, Jason,” she says through the glass.

“No. Roll down your window.” To sugarcoat it, I add, “Please.”

“Why?”

“What do you mean why? I want to talk to you and I don’t want shout through the glass.”

Huffing, the glass slides down slowly. “What is it?” She keeps her hands on the steering wheel and her grip seems to tighten just a bit.

She glances my way, so I say, “I want to see you.”

“You’re seeing me, Jason, so if that’s all there is, I’ll be going no—”

The glass starts to roll up, but I clamp my palm over it. She releases the button and looks up at me. “I don’t know what happened the other day, what turned your mood so quickly, but I’d like another chance for us to talk this time.”

Living in the capital of Texas with her family, Scott loves traveling and avocados, beaches, and cooking with her kids. She’s obsessed with epic romances and loves a good plot twist. Her favorite color is blue, but she likens it more toward the sky than the emotion. Her home is filled with the welcoming symbol of the pineapple and finds surfing a challenge though she likes to think she’s a pro.
